Awesome pods on the Battle of the Bulge! Thanks, guys!
My dad landed in Europe on July 6 where he joined the campaign to fight through Germany. After receiving three purple hearts during this campaign, they decided to make him captain of the military police in occupied Paris. He was 21 and I’m sure the father mine is also the father of many brothers and sisters I don’t know about.
Hope so anyway!
I liked the ‘what if’ discussion.
As I mentioned before, I lived in China for 4.5 years. I studied military history there, as well as teaching English and coaching American Football. Mao had a famous quote that hits hard for me in how China functions (and, unfortunately, as had become so in America in recent years, particularly).
“To control the masses you must control the propaganda. To control the propaganda you must control journalism, academia and entertainment.”
Great pod on the Russo Finnish War, guys. Thanks!
